Chapter 20: True Longinus 1/2

With unwavering determination, Sasuke unleashed his Chidori Spear, slicing through the perpetrator's arm in a swift and decisive strike. As his eyes darted towards Yasaka, a wave of relief washed over him to see that she was alive, albeit unconscious.

Yasaka remained bound to a table, surrounded by intricate magic circles, in a vulnerable state that tugged at Sasuke's heart. The urgency to reach her was strong, but his attention was swiftly diverted as the man regrew his severed limb with the aid of phoenix tears.

Annoyance burned within Sasuke, fueling his resolve to break the will of his adversary. However, the situation demanded immediate action, and Sasuke decided that killing the man would be the best course of action to check on Yasaka condition faster.

Infusing chakra into his feet, Sasuke propelled himself forward with incredible speed, closing the distance between them in an instant. With lightning-fast precision, he unleashed a powerful roundhouse kick aimed at the man's stomach.

Caught off guard, the man's eyes widened in surprise as Sasuke's strike connected with full force, propelling him forcefully into a nearby wall.

The impact shattered the wall, sending the man hurtling into a new room. Sasuke wasted no time and swiftly flickered towards him, preparing to deliver a devastating blow to his abdomen.

However, the man swiftly summoned a spear brimming with holy energy, halting Sasuke's advance. He shouted in anger, "How dare you betray humanity in order to save a stupid fox?"

The insult struck a nerve with Sasuke, who prided himself on keeping his emotions in check. Referring to Yasaka as a "stupid fox" ignited a slight fiery of anger within him.

Sasuke analyzed the man's spear and thought, 'The strongest sacred gear, True longinus.' He recognized it as a sacred gear since its aura was similar to the one he had encountered before.

"Such an idiotic creation," he remarked and scoffed at the notion of humanity's chances for survival, as the devils were already reincarnating sacred gear users and the Fallen Angels were eliminating them.

A sinister grin formed on Sasuke's face as he mocked the man's possession of the True Longinus, the most powerful sacred gear. Sasuke summoned his Kusanagi sword from his shadow dimension, a convenient advantage given his current one-armed state.

Sasuke lunged forward, his movements fluid and precise, as he clashed with the wielder of the True Longinus.

Their weapons clashed with a resounding clash, each swing of Sasuke's sword met with a staunch defense from the longinus spear. The air crackled with tension as they engaged in a fierce battle of skill and strategy.

Recognizing the formidable weapon mastery of his opponent, Sasuke activated his Sharingan, his eyes transforming into the three tomoes. With his enhanced perception and tracking abilities, he effortlessly anticipated the man's movements, staying one step ahead at all times.

Sparks flew with every clash of their weapons, creating a mesmerizing display of power and precision. Sasuke reveled in the thrill of battle, his senses heightened as adrenaline coursed through his veins. The clash of steel echoed through the room, filling it with an aura of intensity.

As the battle intensified, Sasuke seized an opportunity. With a quick feint of his sword, he swiftly changed his trajectory, aiming a powerful slash towards the man's abdomen. The move caught his opponent off guard, leaving an opening that Sasuke expertly exploited.

His blade sliced through the air, finding its mark with a satisfying impact. The man's defenses crumbled under the onslaught, unable to withstand the force of Sasuke's attack.

As Sasuke's attack connected with his opponents, his senses heightened, giving him a sense of danger. His opponent, who ignored his own bleeding, wasted no time. With a swift motion, the man extended his spear towards Sasuke once again, impaling him with precision.

However, Sasuke was prepared and utilized Amenotejikara. He replaced himself with a nearby object, escaping without any damage, or so he thought. He glanced at his abdomen and noticed he was grazed badly.

He tapped into his Six Paths chakra, using its restorative properties to begin healing his wound. Despite the pain, he could not ignore the danger of this specific sacred gear. "So, this is why they call it a god-killer, " he mused, a hint of amusement in his voice.

Activating his Mangekyo Sharingan, Sasuke focused his chakra, conjuring the inextinguishable black flames of Amaterasu.

The searing darkness erupted from his eyes, hurtling towards his opponent with relentless fury. The man, sensing the imminent danger, swiftly swung his spear, attempting to slash through the engulfing flames.

Undeterred, Sasuke unleashed another wave of Amaterasu, forcing the man to evade and dodge, his movements becoming more frantic. A smile graced Sasuke's lips as he watched the man's desperate attempts to avoid the encroaching flames.

In that moment, Sasuke activated Kagutsuchi, his mastery over the black flames. Skillfully manipulating the inferno, he guided countless fiery spikes towards his foe. Each spike pierced the man's body, eliciting agonized screams as the scorching flames consumed his flesh.

The air filled with the acrid scent of burning flesh, and the room became a chaotic dance of fire and pain.

However, in a split second, the man will was strong and activated his balance breaker, causing seven ominous dark purple orbs to materialize around him.

Sasuke couldn't help but notice the resemblance to Naruto's truth-seeking orbs. Before he could react, one of the orbs absorbed his Amaterasu flames, shielding the man from further harm and he had already healed himself with another Phoenix tear.

With his spear aimed directly at Sasuke, the man unleashed a powerful blue beam. Sasuke swiftly evaded the attack, employing his exceptional agility and reflexes to stay one step ahead. His movements became a mesmerizing dance of evasion as he dodged the relentless assault.

"Sacred gears are really annoying" Sasuke muttered as he replaced himself with one of the orbs around the man and appeared in front of him, ready to end this fight.
